Gold, Silver Recover from Wednesday Fall

U.S. jobs and economic data helped prod gold and silver into a rebound Thursday,
with miners also enjoying broad gains.

The Gold Price Rose $11.20 to $1,721.10 if you Don't Buy Silver or Gold you are Effectively Buying US Dollars or Euros or Yen

-2.67% Dow Industrial : 12,930.30 Change : 28.23 or 0.22% US Dollar Index :
78.79 Change : 0.051 or 0.06% All right, I know y'all are all curious about the
silver and GOLD PRICE . They bounced back today like a fine prizefighter. The
GOLD PRICE rose $11.20 to $1,721.10 and silver rose 3%, 102.8c, to 3561.1c,
after falling 6.8% yesterday. Is it the end of the world? Mercy, NO! Is it the
end of the world when T.J. Maxx runs a sale? My wife doesn't think so, and
that's what the market is offering you right now on silver and gold. I will
admit that yesterday's $77.10 drop might give anybody cause to reach for his
wastebasket and a short puke, but think about it. That's a 4.3% drop, 4 pennies
out of a dollar, and not many of y'all would stoop down to pick up four pennies.
At its lowest yesterday the GOLD PRICE hit $1,696. What does that mean? Well,
that support under $1,705 didn't give. Next, it closed yesterday at $1,709.90,
ABOVE the $1,705 crucial support. Today it bounced up to the next support level,
$1,725, and closed at at $1721.1 Now y'all think. Y'all were all happy as a fat
rat in the city dump while gold was rising from $1,523 to $1,787, so why get
riled when it drops back to $1,710? The up 5 steps, back one step is the normal
growth process. As long as GOLD holds about $1,696, it will not drop lower. Now
let's talk about that, because I say stuff like that all the time. What am I
leaving out? That if you buy here, you are risking that it WON'T hold $1,696.
But if you keep waiting until you are 100% certain gold is rising, you'll sit
there watching the whole bull market, and miss it. Besides, the risk you sit is
greater than the risk you run. If you don't buy silver or gold, you are
effectively buying US dollars or euros or yen. You really want to hold those?
SILVER gained nearly 3% today, 102.8c, which salved yesterday's 255.7c loss
(owch.) Looking at the chart, yesterday merely took silver down for a final kiss
good buy to its 300 day moving average. Today it bounce up above that 3482c
mark. Yesterday's fall satisfied a 38% correction. That could be enough. If
silver falls 50% of its foregoing rise, it would hit 3200c. Testifying against
much more falling is that downtrend line from the August high, which yesterday
nearly touched. Another final kiss good-bye? Long and short here is that
yesterday's fall was catalyzed by the Bernancubus remarks, but both metals were
due for a correction. The Bernancubus just helped us get it all done in one day.
Yesterday offered a perfect example how central banks destabilize markets. That
goof Bernanke mumbled around before congress and suggested he might not print
more money. When are folks going to learn this is all propaganda? Brakes! Gas!
Brakes! Gas! He's just driving the sheep into the direction he wants them to go.
In the end, I'll warrant y'all, he WILL inflate, because he hath no weapon
besides. The whole institutional set-up breathes and eats inflation, and without
it the system dies and apparatchiki like the redoubtable Mr. Bernanke become
supernumerary and worthless. This issue differs somewhat from the manipulation-
of-silver-and-gold issue. Do the Fed and the government manipulate silver and
gold, not to mention stocks? Of COURSE they do, but NEVER successfully over the
long term. Witness: their gold manipulations since 1996 have successfully kept
gold, then at $252, down to $1,721.10 today, only a 6.83-fold increase. However,
when a market is ready to correct, a little push further by the government (as
we saw yesterday) is liable to work a big, but short-lived and temporary,
effect. Anyhow, Bernanke's intervention no more caused the drop in silver and
gold than germs cause disease. A weakness in the immune system causes disease,
and the germs take advantage of it. That germ Bernanke saw silver and gold with
a weak immune system, and took advantage of it. Now that we have all that
straightened out, let's talk about pleasanter things, or at least, more
rational. Stocks keep on struggling along in the same trading range, burning up
buying power and getting all gussied up for a sizeable fall. Dow today gained a
magnificent 0.22 %, 28.23 points, to 12,980.30. S&P500 climbed 8.41, 0.62%, to
1,374.09. Stocks have no direction and they've traded out a fatal rising wedge
-- not a recipe for success and higher prices. But don't believe me -- what am
I, a natural born fool from Tennessee, next to the geniuses of Wall Street and
Washington? Why, I couldn't come up to Comrade Bernanke's shoe soles,
intellectually speaking. Physically, of course, I'm a head or so taller. I'd say
"better looking", too, but that's like shooting carp in a rain barrel -- with a
hand grenade. The dollar's 7/10% gain yesterday-- 54.1 basis points -- nailed a
tent stake into the euro's head. It dropped 1.14%, huge move for a currency.
Today it ended at 1.3316, down another 0.12%. Chart begs to say that the euro's
rally reached its 50% correction level and ran out of gas, and is about to begin
diving again. 20 day moving average stands nearby at 1.3245. If the euro tries
to cross that bridge, it will find no bridge, only a gulf. Yen fell, too,
yesterday, but only to prove a double bottom at 123c/Y100 (Y81.30/US$1). Rose
slightly today, 0.07%, to 123.28c (Y81.12). Wow. Trying to pick the best paper
currency is like trying to pick the World's Most Likeable Dictator. Tough
choice. Anyway, the scrofulous dollar gained 5.1 basis points today to close at
78.788. Dollar has escaped that gravity that was pulling it earthward and built
new support above 78.60. Whether it can pierce 79 is another question. Argentum

Gold Price Trend-line News Market Review Today: The primary stock indices in
the U.S. dropped lower during the last full trading session. The dollar gained
strength versus a basket of other currencies and the price of gold per ounce
fell lower. Bernanke relayed that the economic recovery in the U.S. was mediocre

in the near term. The lack of support for future QE3 pushed the strength of the
dollar higher in the global economic environment and as a result, gold value
responded inversely. Precious metals in general experienced weak trends during
the last trading session. Gold Price per ounce contract close today and Silver

Gold & Silver Prices – Daily Outlook 01.03.2012

Gold and silver prices changed direction and plummeted yesterday: silver, even
more than gold, declined by 6.89%. The last time gold and silver declined so
sharply and promptly was back on December 14th when the FOMC disappointed
bullion traders as there were no announcements of QE3. This time was very
similar and Bernankes testimony disappointed traders. Furthermore, ECB announced
yesterday the bank will allot €529.5 billion to LTRO – this was higher than
expected and may have also affected Euro/USD. Finally, the US GDP 2011 Q4 growth
rate reached 3% according the recent update. This news may have also pushed up
US dollar against other currencies and lowered the chances of another QE3.
